Thirty-THIRD SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
matthew 25:14-30Jesus told his disciples this parable:
"A man going on a journey
called in his servants and entrusted his possessions to them.
To one he gave five talents; to another, two; to a third, one--
to each according to his ability.
Then he went away.
Immediately the one who received five talents went and traded with them,
and made another five.
Likewise, the one who received two made another two.
But the man who received one went off and dug a hole in the ground
and buried his master's money.
After a long time
the master of those servants came back
and settled accounts with them.
The one who had received five talents came forward
bringing the additional five.
He said, 'Master, you gave me five talents.
See, I have made five more.'
His master said to him, 'Well done, my good and faithful servant.
Since you were faithful in small matters,
I will give you great responsibilities.
Come, share your master's joy.'
Then the one who had received two talents also came forward and said,
'Master, you gave me two talents.
See, I have made two more.'
His master said to him, 'Well done, my good and faithful servant.
Since you were faithful in small matters,
I will give you great responsibilities.
Come, share your master's joy.'
Then the one who had received the one talent came forward and said,
'Master, I knew you were a demanding person,
harvesting where you did not plant
and gathering where you did not scatter;
so out of fear I went off and buried your talent in the ground.
Here it is back.'
His master said to him in reply, 'You wicked, lazy servant!
So you knew that I harvest where I did not plant
and gather where I did not scatter?
Should you not then have put my money in the bank
so that I could have got it back with interest on my return?
Now then! Take the talent from him and give it to the one with ten.
For to everyone who has,
more will be given and he will grow rich;
but from the one who has not,
even what he has will be taken away.
And throw this useless servant into the darkness outside,
where there will be wailing and grinding of teeth.'" -
Fr. kevin's corner
Greetings in the Lord…
Change is a bit of a challenge for all of us. With every transition comes both uncertainty and opportunity. I take this opportunity to introduce myself and hopefully ease some uncertainty.
I am Fr. Kevin Gualano (please call me
Fr. Kevin). I grew up in the Lehigh Valley and I have a younger sister and brother. I am a graduate of Easton Area High School and during which I volunteered at Suburban Rescue Squad as an EMT
I have a B. S. is in Physical Chemistry, from Gannon University, with a minor in
Psychology. After college, I worked a few years at Dun & Bradstreet where I wrote
financial programs. I graduated from St. Charles Borromeo Seminary with an M.A. in Pastoral Theology and recently I was sent for further studies where I earned a Master of Science in Church Management from the
Villanova School of Business.
I have been ordained for 14 years during when I served as an Assistant Pastor at the Cathedral of St. Catharine of Siena and St. Joseph the Worker Parishes. I then served as the Chaplain of Bethlehem Catholic High School, and then as the Newman Chaplain of both Muhlenberg and Moravian Colleges.
I enjoy hiking, bicycling, skiing, and a really good rain storm.
I am extremely happy and excited to be
appointed your Administrator of Most Blessed Sacrament Parish. I look forward to this great journey of faith, that the Holy Spirit has gifted us.
May God Bless you,
Fr. Kevin
